To my mom

Happy mothers day!

I hope you have a grand day of relaxing and enjoying quiet time, whatever the day may bring.

I had a great time visiting Philadelphia with you. Thanks for inviting me to go. We had a good chance to visit and enjoy extended amount of conversations. The fire alarms at bed time were just icing on the cake.

Here are some highlights from our trip. I love you. ~Donna

View from our room on the 24th floor of the Loew's Hotel.
Pretty cool that Ben Franklin designed this building.

After a quick lunch at the Reading Terminal Market the tour began.
First stop...the Liberty Bell, of course.

The grounds outside the liberty bell showcase were beautiful
with 100's of tulips of all colors.


Independence Hall - George Washington sat in this very chair.

Current repair work requires a scaffold and
scrim banner on the tower.


Our carriage ride was very fun.  Thank you Doris.



Day 2:  Lunch at City Tavern after our double decker bus tour.

I'll save the sights from the bus tour around town for another post.  Can't wait to return to Philly for more history and maybe even a sporting event.
